Our Projects

International Aktion Club Service InitiativeThe focus of the International Aktion Club Service Initiative is an organization called Sleeping Children Around the World (SCAW). SCAW is a nonprofit organization based in Toronto, Ontario. www.scaw.orgThe mission of Sleeping Children Around the World is to provide bed kits to children in need throughout the developing world. This is carried out through Aktion Clubs donating $28 per kit. Each kit contains a sleeping mat, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net (if applicable), clothes, towel and school supplies.Kiwanis International has provided a grant of $10,000 and will match each Aktion Club’s donation of $200 towards the initiative. Upon delivery of the kits, the Aktion Club receives a photo and letter from the recepients.

District Aktion Club Service InitiativeThe Cal-Nev-Ha District Aktion Clubs undertake a Special Service Initiative at the annual District Leadership Training Conference and Convention. The initiative is selected by Aktion Club members. Aktion Club Convention attendees work on the the project during the convention. The clubs usually take the things like baby blankets, hospital dolls and hygiene kits back and distribute them in their communities.

Each Aktion Club defines its own service project priorities within this broad mission. Each club works to raise the funds to carry out their projects.
